Yet another way to re-purpose a tie

I'm not sure if I have just become aware of people wearing their keys on what looks like ribbon around their neck or if the number has actually increased, but I have added myself to them.

Perhaps it was the fact that the keys are worn around a neck that  resulted in my using a necktie , one that was kept in the most recent culling of my collection.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's an unusual tie,  reversible, and I think it presents better with the keys than knotted around a neck under a collar.

I like the means of key transport:  simpler and more convenient and handy.  Functional and decorative.

Wonder where the practise originated.
